Post partum appointment at a new OB?

I moved about a week after LO (little one) was born and my old OB called to confirm my 6 week appointment. I unfortunately had to cancel and I completely forgot I was supposed to get an IUD at my post partum. So now I'm trying to find a new OB and not sure if they'll take me. Will they still do a post partum appointment and insert the IUD if they weren't the dr I delivered with?

Before anyone says "Call and ask" I just got the call like 30 min ago and all...

Before anyone says "Call and ask" I just got the call like 30 min ago and all the OBs here are closed so I'm calling tomorrow. Just wanted to see if someone has switched right after birth before?

I switched! I called and asked the new dr and the said they can’t code it as post partum they code it as a problem visit for the insurance so that may affect your copay. My appt is tomorrow. I had a cesearean nov 24 and I just don’t want to go back to my dr I never want to see her again plus I moved about an hour away.
